[PATCH v2 0/5] serial: Finish sysrq on qcom_geni; fix sysrq vs. lockdep on 8250

[Douglas Anderson]

I started out this series trying to make sysrq work over the serial
console on qcom_geni_serial, then fell into a rat's nest.

To solve the deadlock I faced when enabling sysrq I tried to borrow
code from '8250_port.c' which avoided grabbing the port lock in
console_write().  ...but since these days I try to run with lockdep on
all the time, I found it caused an annoying lockdep splat (which I
also reproduced on my rk3399 board).  ...so I instead changed my
qcom_geni_serial solution to borrow code from 'msm_serial.c'

I wasn't super happy with the solution in 'msm_serial.c' though.  I
don't like releasing the spinlock there.  Not only is it ugly but it
means we are unlocking / re-locking _all the time_ even though sysrq
characters are rare.  ...so I came up with what I think is a better
solution and then implemented it for qcom_geni_serial.

Since I had a good way to test 8250-based UARTs, I also fixed that
driver to use my new method.  When doing so, I ran into a missing
include in serial_core.h.  NOTE: I didn't have a way to test
msm_serial.c at all, so I didn't switch that (or all other serial
drivers for that matter) to the new method.

NOTE: from a serial point of view v2 is the same as v1 but I've
removed the extra kgdb-related patches and made it obvious that this
is really for all sysrq, not just kgdb.  I've also generally tried to
curate the CCs more properly.
